Any tips or tricks on using the tank sealer stuff? We have two new 2024 Phatmoto All-Terrains that both have fuel leaks from the frames, and we will need to seal the tanks as well.
Jason I hear you brother I had the same thing happen on my screaming demon v2 bicycle and what I did was take everything wheels and engine off to make it lite as possible asked a gas tank manufacturing company for dragsters and asked what do they do when this happens drain all the fuel wash out with dawn dish soap gets rid of the oil residue let dry then rinse with Ashton Watch your paint it will remove it then let dry and order some red coat tank sealer following the instructions do it twice it works I had to do it twice and got a bicycle for free out of the deal good luck with it I subscribed to your channel the two bikes on my channel both had holes in the tank been working great for two years now
@UC3XEaaboLgFCfVJ0lkmbhxw there you go they might send you another reason is you can't ship something that has had gas in it and if you do get another one you know how to fix that one it's a little time consuming cause it takes two days to dry because you only have the two holes good luck I hope they honor their warranty because that's from a bad weld good luck with it
All they done was send me a free can of por-15 tank sealer which didn't work I had to purchase a can of red kote sealer which is what I would recommend just follow the directions on the can and give it a couple extra days to cure then you should be good to go
Well, that is un acceptable to me. I just bought the 2024 bike and you would think the leaking problem would have been taking care of it by now on all the new models. They should have given you a new bike instead. Thank you for your response.
Yeah they burnt me.there and the other issues I had was the rear sprocket wasn't running true my chain would go from so loose it was about to fall off to so tight it was about to snap and both front and rear axles was bent then I also purchased the limited edition that came with the accessories which took nearly a month after the bike came to get and that was after having to call the crappy customer service reps I know in the future if I ever but another bike from them the things to check and the tank will be sealed before I even assemble it right out of the box one would think as much as these things cost there would be some sort of quality control but basically all they do is purchase them in bulk from China then sell them for 3 times what they get them for and all the accessories they offer are also just cheap Chinese junk you can get off Amazon for just a fraction of the price they chareg
welcome to Xi-Nese Crap. Wait til you buy a E- bike. WooHoo! Mine blew up and caught fire between my legs in June. Now its Sept and still waiting to get it fixed under warranty. Ariel Rider Grizzly x-2
I hear ya there I tried to get them to warranty the frame which was leaking gas and all they done was send a can of cheap gas tank sealer which did fix the problem but you would think that as much as these things cost you shouldn't have to do a bunch of extra work on a brand new bike as soon as you get it
It's already done my friend didn't have a choice I tried to get them to warranty the frame but all they done was send me the sealer it's actually holding up pretty well I've put a little over 300 miles on the motor since then
I got 2 no problems. My buddies baught another 3 or 4 no tank issues. They recommend coating the tank but i never did. Phatmoto for life🍻
That's how it goes sometimes you get a dud ... now that everything is fixed I love this thing great bike
mine came with both discs slightly bent, front light broken, and right mirror broken. oh and gas leak lol
Yeah mine was pouring gas when I got it and both the axles were bent along with the rear sprocket being ⅛ of an inch off not running true
I actually just got this bike and it has the fuel leaking issue. Same color too
Red kote sealer is what I used to fix mine

Just make.surw the tank is clean and dry and let the sealer cure for a few days before putting gas back in the tank

I'm getting in touch with Phatmoto tomorrow about the warranty but then I'm probably going to do the very same thing

Was just checking back with you to see if the company is honoring its warranty on that hole in the tank
Nothing new yet still waiting to hear back from them
So, did Phatmoto solve this problem for you? Cause just got my 2024 bike and is leaking gas after a week of using it.

why did u pay 1600 for it ? mine was only 999.00 ?
I didn't get mine on sale and it's the limited edition as well....either way it was much more than it was worth

I did 2 days in a row this last week and once a couple weeks ago

Don’t gas sealer on the gas tank because it was mess up your engine it happened to me because I have a phatmoto. Also

Absolute worst company and customer service.....
